Like a battered spouse, we are so focused on what our abusers are thinking, feeling, might do next, that we are incapable of taking any steps that allow us to escape.
Direct response, defense or denial, is NEVER an effective way to advance because we are playing their game. Until we learn to stop playing their game, and make them play ours, we will continue to be victimized by their abuse -- at best, we "hold the line."
When we stop pussy-footing around and go after them, no holds barred, and demand Impeachment, we are doing what we must to defend our constitutional democracy, we are accusing them of REAL crimes, and we are ignoring them and their threats of "backlash" and their bogus accusations ("cut and run" just being the latest).
The most effective way to fight them is to get on the Impeachment bus -- full speed ahead. Ignoring their propaganda, and doing what morality and principle demand of us is the ONLY effective way to defeat their propaganda and move forward, grounded in truth and reality.
Impeachment IS Our Positive Agenda. Committment to True American Principle is Our Turf and Impeachment takes us there (for more, see

25-Jun post).
from
22-Apr post. .A rogue regime seized the power of the American presidency on January 6th, 2001. The people of other nations have long known that they can no longer appeal to good will of the American people because we surrendered the sovereignty of We the People.
Every day, more of our fellow citizens are seeing the truth about this regime, but far to few understand that as long as we leave governing power in the hands of men who are a law onto themselves, options that would be available to a legitimate American President will remain closed.
The conflict and chaos that is spreading inhumanity and destroying lives in the Middle East is not inevitable. There is only one way out - Impeachment. We can transform resignation into hope right now by reasserting our collective sovereignty, forcing Bush and Cheney out of power, and turning them over to the Hague to answer for their war crimes.
If we restore legitimate leadership in the White House, the doors of possibility that are closed to the fascist war criminals will open
Legitimate American power can be transformed into a force for good overnight. We can commit our nation to the task of engaging the critical players (Sunni, Shia, and Kurdish blocs, ourselves, the EU, Turkey, Russia, China, the Arab League. . . ) and helping them to find solutions that can work because all the parties have a stake in making them work.
If, because of our complicity in the horrors committed by this regime our continued involvement is rejected, we must get out of the way, withdraw our troops, and begin to redeem ourselves by setting aside reparations that would be paid as negotiated milestones and conditions are met. . .
